Or:
anchor button1 to the left (Anchors=[akLeft,akBottom])
anchor button2 center (Anchors=[akBottom])
anchor button3 to the right (Anchors=[akRight,akBottom])
Or:
Use TButtonPanel
Or:
Put the buttons on a TPanel or TGroupBox.
Anchor all buttons default (akLeft,akTop and Align=alNone)
Panel1.ChildSizing.Layout=cclLeftToRightThenTopToBottom
And now you can use the Panel1.ChildSizing, Panel1.BorderSpacing and the
ButtonX.BorderSpacing properties to setup spacing, enlarging rules,
shrinking rules and alignment.
TRadioGroup and TCheckGroup use these properties for their grids.
